First flavors - Tarragon, Thai basil, licorice, more herbaceous than fruit laden, yet still gives rise to the cassis and sweet blackberry, prune. Big tannic backbone, lends me to believe it will last for quite awhile in the cellar.
Smells of oak! Hazelnuts, and first floor.

Interesting Syrah from Amador county California. Very old world-esque. Big black fruit with minerality. This wine was meant to be drank in its youth, and I am consuming it on the back end of its journey. It’s definitely not past it’s prime, but I wonder how much more the fruit would have come thru 4 years ago.

A good balanced wine overall. Not too hot and jammy and not too light and delicate. Refined tannins with a solid structure balanced with a dark layer of red fruit and moderate oak.

Big ripe black and blue fruits, jammy, well integrated tannins. Some menthol, and black pepper and spice..Great with my cheese soup and heavy cream lobster pasta. Great wine for this restaurant #10/09

Sweet ripe raspberries burst from the glass, with blueberries (I love blue fruit in Syrah), rose hips and black strap molasses. Sweet entry, gobs of jammy red-black fruit, leather and baking spices. Fun and interesting.
